The answer

Your work at the company is permissible because its operations are in permissible areas. It does not matter that its capital came from an interest-based loan. What is called a "loan commission" is usury (riba), and what matters are the realities, not the names. Any stipulated increase in a loan contract is usury by consensus. The important thing is that your work at the company be in a permissible field not related to interest-based loans.
